Now that Delphi is bankrupt...

If Delphi and Visteon go under, where will Ford and GM get their parts from? Maybe Denso?


Depends if you mean under under or just under. Bankruptcy allows them to continue on a more even playing field and the supply continues. If they can't make it then, perhaps a new entity will arise or the parts will be consumed by another company, probably foreign, and the supply continues. I continue to feel that Ford and GM saw this coming before they spun the guys off and hoped they could get free of them for long enough to avoid disaster. Had they kept the work in house, GM and Ford might have faced bankruptcy sooner than they will. The giants have enough fat left to keep going awhile though.
